Photoshop file won't fit

Hi,
I'm working on a pal anamorphic project in which I'd like to import a photoshop file, with a gap inside to use video in. I made the file using the photoshop cs3 video preferences. Saved it as a psd 1024x576 not anamorphic. The sequence has the same size and is anamorphic. The dimension 16:9 look good, but the file won't fit in the canvas.
Resizing the file with motiontab cuts the file, but doesn't cover the whole picture.
Any ideas? Do I have to save the file otherwise?

In Photoshop: click File > New.
Click on Preset: Custom (it might display Clipboard instead), and choose:
"PAL D1/DV Widescreen, 720 x 576 (with guides)".
Set the background to "Transparent".
If you plan on flying the logo to or from a larger size change resolution to something higher than the standard 72dpi. 150 dpi works well for this sort of thing. Click OK.
Place your graphics inside this template, observing safe area and safe title as needed.
If your logo is not rectangular, use Layers > "Merge Visible" and save as .tiff with alpha to keep its shape.
Import to FCP and set the Distort control to zero as mentioned above.

    Good luck and you are welcome.
    Like I said, I bought one of their inexpensive enclosures and now can use the hard drive just as a source for the files that are on it...my external drives are much larger and faster so I just plug that drive in when I need something from it.

  • Photoshop files won't open in an way but inside Photoshop

    I just set up a new Intel Mac Pro and installed Photoshop CS4 on it.
    Now when I try to open Photoshop files by just clicking on them none of them will open in anything but Preview.
    The only way I can get any to open is through the "file - open" window inside Photoshop, which is a big waste of time.
    Everything worked fine on my other Mac, but now on this new one many things have changed even though it's the exact same program.
    And I can't find any settings that effect this.
    How can I change it?
    THANKS!

    Click once on a closed file (to highlight it) then from Finder go File>Get Info. In the Get Info window chose Open with: Photoshop CS4 and click the Change All button.

  • I just downloaded itunes and all my music is there but the files won't fit onto my computer so now i can't play the 12000 songs i have n my library y isn't this possible if all the songs are on the cloud ?this is ridiculous ...

    i got a new laptop because my old one won't turn on anymore .i can only sync my account to 5 computers so how do i unsync the account from my old laptop if i can't use my old laptop ?and i have over 12000 songs that i now have to individually drag and drop onto my computer that doesn't hold that much space because none of my songs will play because there is no file on computer to back it up .all of my songs are saved in the cloud y isn't that enough to make my songs play ?so now i have a list of songs that won't play on my itunes that won't let me use my account because it's the 6th computer on my account .it's kindda pointless .

    Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • Huge iMovie file won't fit DVD

    Hi everyone! I have a wedding movie I have converted from my handy-cam into an iMovie. Duration about 1.5 hours. Size of file 18Gb. Is it possible to compress onto 1 DVD? If not what do you advise?
    Many Thanks John Simpson

    IMovie and iDVD use a very different storage format (DV vs MPEG2) so it will fit as long as the content length is below 120 minutes (or below 240 minutes with a dual layer DVD burner). Just set iDVD's prefs to "Best Quality".

    I just bought a MBA and I need to move my photos and itunes to an external hard drive (from my old MacBook Pro) because they won't fit on the Air.  I got the photos moved fine and I followed an online tutorial to move the necessary files for itunes, but it didn't work.  The files copied fine, but when I tell iTunes on the Air to look at the external drive for the library, it doesn't find anything.  What I copied was the entire iTunes Media folder.  So, how do I move the necessary iTunes files from my old Pro to a external drive so I can access them from my new Air?  Whew!

    iTunes- How to move the library to an EHD
    After you move the library you need to open iTunes by first depressing the OPTION key then launching iTunes. You will be given a choice of which library to use. This can then be made a permanent change, if you wish, in the Advanced section of iTunes preferences.

  • Canon CR2 Raw files won't open in Photoshop CS4

    I'm using a Canon EOS 600D (aka EOS Kiss X5), Photoshop CS4 (ver 11.0.1) with Camera Raw 5.7.0.213.
    CR2 Raw files won't open in Photoshop, though the thumbnails are clearly visible and open in Windows Explorer.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Yes, absolutely all of the quality and dynamic range is retained in the DNG, because it is still raw data.
    Outside of upgrading to Photoshop CS5, which can open your files directly with Camera Raw 6.4.1, your only choice is the extra step of converting the .CR2 files to .DNG with the free DNG converter.
    While you'll get all the quality your Camera Raw 5.x converter can deliver, you should keep in mind the Camera Raw 6.x converter has an entirely new, additional "2010 process" for converting raw images, which (depending on your settings) can actually deliver a higher quality conversion than the one you're getting with Photoshop CS4.  I think it's worth the cost of the Photoshop upgrade, personally.

  • Canon 7D Mark II files won't open in bridge or photoshop

    I am using photoshop CS5 and purchased a canon 7D Mark II and my files won't open. I updated to the photoshop 8.7.1 and my files still won't open. How do I fix this?

    …I updated to the photoshop 8.7.1…
    Assuming you mean ACR (Adobe Camera Raw plug-in) 8.7.1, not "Photoshop" what you write makes no sense.
    ACR 8.7.1 needs at least CS6 to run.  You will never be able to open your raw files from that camera directly in CS5.  There will be no further updates for the obsolete, unsupported CS5 applications.
    You have to go the free, stand alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.7.1.  Locate it, download it, install it and then launch and run it on ever folder of raw files to convert them to raw DNGs you can then open in your CS5 setup.

  • Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files

    Photoshop CS5 won't open .kmz files. I did a fresh install of Google Earth, opened it, saved a place, and saved a .kmz file. It reopens fine in Google Earth.
    When I try to open it in Photoshop, this message pops up:
    File Format Error
    This file is from a previous version of Google Earth or it is not a Google Earth file
    I get this message regardless of the following:
    - ps is closed and i right click the kmz and choose ps (rather than google earth) to open it
    - ps is open and i double click the kmz
    - ps is open and i choose file/open and select the kmz
    - ps is open and i have created and saved a new psd file, then choose 3D/New Layer from 3D File/ and select the kmz
    I have tried the usual remedies, change rwx permissions, repair permissions, delete prefs. No luck.
    Any thoughts? Software versions are below.
    Thanks.
    - Photoshop CS5 Extended 12.0.4 x64 (doesn't work in x32 either)
    - Google Earth 6.0.3.2197
    - OS 10.6.8

    I was trying to see (since Photoshop Extended touts the ability to open kmz files) if I could open a 3D Google Earth file and edit it in Photoshop. A file like this for instance http://ecotope.org/anthromes/maps/. After more research I've learned that kmz is nothing more that a container format - you can change the extension to zip and see what's in it.
    I ran across this tidbit in the Photoshop CS3 Extended forum:
    Photoshop CS3 Extended supports the ability to import .kmz files created from Google Earth 4 or exported from Sketch-up in the Google Earth 4 format. Photoshop CS3 Extended cannot open Google Earth files. If you have a Google Earth file, you can convert it to a Google Earth 4 format with the free version of Sketch-up.
    So, theoretically if I could get a kmz into Google Earth 4 format, I could open it in Photoshop. But I haven't had any success importing a kmz or kml into SketchUp. Even just making a native sketchup file and trying to import that in psd gives a ram error.
    Probably I'm wishing for the moon.

  • White Wall - Photoshop CS6 corrupted files won't zoom

    So my Photoshop CS6 is slowly corrupting files. I open psds to find nothing but a giant whit wall. I zoom out and the white disappears but then I can't zoom in any further than 50%. My rulers however, show that I'm zooming in. Then when I select another layer... it snaps to % I should be looking at. (Also... this particular file won't give me a preview in the icon on my desktop. Related?) This is not happening with all my files. Just the ones surrounding this particular project. Please. Help. Me.

    Welcome to the forum.
    With display issues, the first thing that I recommend is to check the installed video driver, and if it is not the latest, update that from the mfgr's Web site.
    What OS are you running?
    What video card (make & model) is installed?
    What is the video driver version?
    Is that the latest on the AMD/ATI, or nVidia Web site?
    Good luck, and if that does not help, at least we will have gotten that out of the way early.

  • Photoshop CS won't read 5.2 DNG files

    I recently had a student use the stand alone DNG converter V.5.2 on his Canon 5D Mark II raw files but Photoshop CS won't read the resultant .dng files. Our copy of CS3 reads them ok but he only has CS and neither his version of CS nor ours will read the files. My understanding has been that .dng files can be read by any version of Photoshop that works with Raw files. Is this no longer true? Or was it never true? Thanks.

    Hi Thomas,
    Installing 2.4 took care of the problem. Boy, does the CS version of Camera Raw seem crude compared to the full featured version you've given us now. I remember it as being pretty impressive at the time but I sure wouldn't want to have to go back to it. I think I've convinced the student how much he's missing out on by not having CS4 but at least he'll be able to work with his Raw files until he upgrades. Thanks for your help.
